Nine formulas, one range — a professional guide to finding your perfect match.
Finding the right foundation is one of the most consequential decisions in makeup. Too light and you are invisible; too heavy and it looks like a mask. Too drying and fine lines sharpen; wrong formula for your skin concern and you are spending money on coverage with no benefit underneath. The RVB Lab foundation range was built to solve this at source — not by offering one formula that claims to suit everyone, but by developing distinct foundations, each with a specific active ingredient system targeting a specific skin concern.
This guide covers every product from primer through to setting powder. Read it, bookmark it, and share it with Maureen when you book your consultation.
The right foundation for your skin is the one formulated for your skin’s specific biology — not a one-size compromise.
Before You Apply: The Smoothing Make-Up Base
The primer is not optional in this range. The Smoothing Make-Up Base uses 3D Instant Lift Technology — a purified tapioca extract that forms a non-occlusive elastic microfilm over the skin, visibly minimising pores, softening fine lines, and smoothing uneven texture before foundation goes on. Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) simultaneously stimulates elastin production and regulates melanin for a more even complexion over time.
Oil-free, silicone-free, non-comedogenic, and fragrance-free. Apply a few seconds before foundation — it extends wear and creates the best possible base for whichever formula you choose. It can be used around the eye area and on the lips as well.
Conceal Before You Foundation
For under-eye coverage, concealer applied before foundation — then blended at the edges with foundation — gives a more natural, longer-lasting result. RVB Lab offers three concealer options, each targeting a different concern.
Cover Stick — 3 shades
A chromatic concealer for dark patches, redness, and skin discolouration across the face. The soft, non-greasy formula uses natural waxes for medium-to-high coverage that does not cake. Three shades. Use it to colour-correct before foundation, or as a highlight to contour and define facial structure.
HD Lifting Concealer — 4 shades
The anti-ageing concealer for expression lines and fine wrinkles. Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 relaxes micro-contractions to soften expression lines; Spilanthes Acmella Flower Extract delivers an instant tightening and firming effect on the skin’s surface. The innovative flocked applicator distributes the product with exceptional grip and blending precision. Result: a soft, elastic second-skin finish in medium coverage. Recommended for mature skin or anyone with visible expression lines at the eye contour.
Meso Fill Concealer — 4 shades
The most targeted eye-area treatment in the range. The Beautif-Eye 4D Complex addresses all four primary under-eye concerns at once: dark pigmentation (by detoxifying the glycotoxins responsible for discolouration), puffiness (by improving microcirculation to reduce fluid retention), fine and deep wrinkles (via ElasticBlur Technology, which blurs without settling into lines), and overall under-eye skin quality (via Hyalu Smart PGA, which enhances hyaluronic acid delivery for sustained hydration and plumping).
Fragrance-free — essential for the delicate eye area. Medium buildable coverage, natural soft-focus finish. Both corrective and preventive: it treats the concern while you wear it. Use daily as part of your complete eye care and complexion routine.
Choose Your Foundation
Long Lasting Foundation — 5 shades
For skin that needs reliable all-day coverage and UV protection. A “zero texture” silky emulsion that is paraben-free, talc-free, and fragrance-free. Asian Pennywort and Pomegranate Sterols provide anti-oxidant, anti-ageing, and moisturising properties for a radiant finish throughout the day. SPF20. Second-skin effect with buildable high coverage. Airless pump packaging. For a natural finish: apply with a latex sponge. For full coverage: foundation brush.
Illuminating Light Foundation — 4 shades
For skin that needs brightening and environmental protection without weight. Carnosine protects collagen fibres from premature ageing and free radical damage — particularly valuable for skin exposed to pollution, sun, or high environmental stress. Erythritol provides deep hydration and osmo-protection. Micronized illuminating particles leave skin looking even with a natural, healthy glow. SPF15. Light-to-medium buildable coverage. Paraben-free. Best suited to: active clients, city skin, sporty lifestyles.
Hydra Booster Foundation — 6 shades
The CLEAN foundation. No silicones, no PEG, no talc, no parabens, no perfume allergens. The active system is PATCH H2O — a hyaluronic acid 3D network combined with trehalose, serine, and urea. It delivers express hydration within 30 minutes of application and maintains deep hydration for up to five days after each wear.
This is the foundation for dehydrated skin, stressed skin, sensitive or hyper-reactive skin, and skin with fine lines caused by dehydration. Six shades — the widest range in the collection. Apply with fingertips for a natural finish, a brush for medium coverage, or a blender sponge for full coverage.
HD Lifting Effect Foundation — 5 shades
The anti-ageing foundation. The hero ingredient is the Perfect-Lift Complex — derived from Spilanthes Acmella, a herb with documented myo-relaxing properties. The effect is described in the official formulation documentation as “botox-like”: it visibly reduces expression lines and improves skin elasticity while you wear it. Wakame extract (Undaria pinnatifida) adds further smoothing. Buildable medium coverage, lightweight texture, long-lasting wear. Airless pump. Recommended for mature skin, or any skin with visible expression lines or loss of firmness.
Meso Fill Foundation — 6 shades
The newest formula in the range and the most intensive. A high-performance hybrid between makeup and skincare treatment, designed for significant smoothing, plumping, and anti-ageing action. Smart Hyaluronic Acid actives with a high penetration capacity (20–50 kDa) + Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 + plant-derived Spilanthol combine to deliver a filler-like cosmetic effect — no procedures required. Stimulates collagen production, improves tone and elasticity, reduces the appearance of expression lines, fine lines, and wrinkles. Opulent cream texture in medium coverage. Six shades from Neutral through to Deep. For skin that wants results alongside coverage.
Wet & Dry Foundation — compact
For combination skin, an oily T-zone, and life on the go. A near-creamy powder foundation enriched with non-drying Rice Powder for a long-lasting, comfortable set. Talc-free, paraben-free. Use dry with a brush for light coverage, with a dry sponge for higher coverage, or wet for a more polished finish. Compact design makes it ideal for touch-ups throughout the day.
Set and Perfect
Silk Finish Pressed Powder — 3 shades
A luxury compact powder with a “powder-to-cream” texture that sets foundation without drying the skin or emphasising fine lines — a specific callout in the product formulation that matters for mature skin, where most pressed powders settle visibly into lines. Light-to-medium coverage, smoothing effect, pore-minimising. Suitable for normal, dry, and mature skin types.
High Definition Loose Powder — translucent
Olive oil sterols (softening, anti-drying) + Vitamin E (antioxidant) + micronized pigments. Translucent and mattifying. No talc, paraben-free. Sets makeup without a caking effect. Apply with a powder brush or puff over any foundation in the range.
